um lol, guys he HAS the mods to back it up, if it was like that with no mods then yes, ricey, but this is a serious race machine, looks come second to performance

No, not when it looks like that. Like I said, I feel bad for flamming because Im sure you put alot of time and effort into but its just flat out horrible to do that to a 5.0.

88BlueGT

And what do you mean he has mods? He has a tranny, suspension work and brakes? I dont think that justified the body work done to that car.

Its made to road race, and thats all there is to it. I dont see anyone flaming you for having 10 way adjustable shocks when thats obviously not needed to go fast in a straight line like you said the 5.0 is made for.

86 5.0L

well considering they're not your everyday upgrades you get at autozone then yes, and 315s in the front is justified for greater braking and turning, if I was going for autocross this is what it would lok like more or less

88BlueGT

Actually, unless you forgot how to read I NEVER said that a 5.0 was only made for a straight line. Go back and read the posts again. And BTW, I am building a 450rwhp street/strip STREET CAR and YES IMO adj shocks are necessary for a nice street/strip car. But hey, I forgot its an autocross car so its OK [&:] Whatever floats your boat... Im not driving it!

Sonic3v

Exactly, there is no reason to flame him for his mods. They arent rice. He has no neons, this isnt widebody on a civic. Its a NASA car. I guess all those widebody saleen's are gay too [&:]

88BlueGT

But he even said that its a street car but it COULD run in the American Iron or AIX race but hes not going to because than he would have to gut his interior. So basically its a street car w/ 315's int he front of it... But like I said; I dont give two sh*ts because its not my car. If he didnt want everyones opinion he shouldnt have posted pictures of it! And what about the carbon fiber hood? Thats not rice??

Sonic3v

Is the CF on the Saleen E rice? CF driveshaft rice? My point is what makes a strong light material rice? The fact that people with cars other than a ford use it?

88BlueGT

Whatever you think, say or do will not change my opinion. I think its ricey IMO. Whatever bro, have fun with your carbon fiber hoods, etc! Now if he painted over the CF that would be a totally different story but leaving it black the way it is it looks like rice IMO.
